Spanish Geography.

The field for geographical exp'ora-
ton is not yet exhausted even in Eu-
rope. Schrader states that in the
north of Spain several ranges OF
mountains exist, some reaching a
hight of 10000 feet, which have no
place on any geographical map. In
the Aran valley another discovery has
recently been made. Triangulation
showed a gap untitled between two
ranges OF peaks which, approached
from different sides, had been sup.
posed to form a single range; and
further exploration proved that the
gap contained large and hitherto
unknown lake.

of Chattanooga, Tenn, writes that he
was seriously afflicted with severe cold
that settled on his lungs; had tried many
remedies without benefit. Being induced

he has used it for all coughs and colds in

man aged about 20, named Aubertin,
but also known as Bcrckein. He
states that he is one of a band of 20
revolutiOnists. The band drew lots

first crime. Berckein declares that
he swore to kill Ferry. He was cap

asked to see both Ferry and Goblet.
The latter did not respond, but Ferry
did, and on his appearance Aubertin
drew a revolver and fired three times

Barrel Factory Destroyed.

by telegraph to the AIhsVille CitlIsA.l
PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 10.-Wm. P.
Pennypacker's extensive barrel fac
tory at Twenty-third and Washington
Avenue was totally destroyed by fire
between four and five o'clock this
morning, together with the valuable
machinery, and large stock of lum-
ber and finished barrels and slaves.
The loss will probably exceed $780,
900. Twenty-Five horses were stabbed
in the rear # the building but all
were rescued from the burning build
ing by policemen and citizens. Two
policemen were severely, though not
dangerously, burned while engaged
in rescuing the animals. The fire
originated in the dying kiln of the eS-
tabliShment. 1t burned with great
fierceness, and caused great excite
ment among the occupants of a num-
Der of small dwelling houses at the
side and rear of the burning building.
Many removed their effects to the
street. Several of the dwellings we're
scorched or slightly burned, but none
seriously damaged. Three hundred
men are thrown out of employment
by the burning of the factory.

Nj APPJTn

MARRIED.
In Nashville, Tenn, on Nov, 30th,
1887, at the residence of the brides
brother. Ed. NJ. Neal, Col. w. NJ.
Cooke to Miss Nanni1 NJ. Neal. There
were present about one huLdred
and fifty invited guests. Ihe bri-
dial presents were numerous and
costly. Col. Cooke is to be congrat-
ulated upon winning SO fair a bride,
and the citizens of Winchester, Ky,
upon the acquisition of such an eie-
gantlsdy to their society. 1t has been
intimated that it was case OF De-
cembcr and May, but the Colonel in
sists that if it be so, it is early in
December and late in May. Colonel
and Mrs. Cooke are at home at the
Rees House.
The Nashville Daily american of
Dec. End, says: "The Hon. VIM.
NJ. Cooke, without giving anv for
NAL notice, came down to this city
night before last, and, by the aid of
Methodist preacher who lately
came here from Giles, captured and
took off to Kentucky a beautiful
young lady, Miss Mamie Neal. For
man who was in Congress as far
back as 1854, serving two terms in
that body of lawmakers, and then
for years carried the old Whig party
on his shoulders Iand then, when. the
shackles were taken eff, about 1859,
assumed the role Of law making fer
Tennessee, TO be playing such
pranks as this is just .ittle out Of
the regular course.
This distinguished gentleman now
a citizen of Kentucky, but long a
leading man of Tennessee, was al-
ways regarded as the handsomest
man in the State, and one of the
most entertaining public speakers
of the old time. He is the grand
son of the first Senator, VIM. Cooke,
and the nephew # John Cooke,
who was atone time Speaker of the
Tennessee House of representatives.
Even when i younger man he
never showed to better advantage,
or was handsomer than on this oc>
casion; indsed, he walked, and look
ed, and got married like a young
man"
The many friends OF Col. Cooke
in this city where he lived for some
years, tender sincere congratulate
tions. He is the father of Mrs. J.
E. Rankin and Capt. W. NJ. Cooke
Jr., of this city.
